Pictures of the garden in January

This new year begins in beauty under the hoarfrost.

Fruits of the malus 'Everest' under the hoarfrost compete with the balls of the Christmas tree.

The pennisetum alopecuroides passes almost unnoticed the rest of the time, but its hairy leaves hang on the hoarfrost giving him an arachnidan look.

The flowers of the mahonia 'Charity' does not suffer because of this infrequent cold in Normandy.

The leaves of bamboo aren't those of a cultivar 'Marginata'.

Under the hoarfrost the slightest twig of birches is white.

The hoarfrost stresses the grace of the miscanthus which resist well to the weight.

The colour of the rosehips of the rosebush 'Meg Merrilies' is brightened by whiteness of the hoarfrost.

The flowers of the fetid hellebore do not suffer because of the cold.

At the end of January, snowdrops are about to bloom. They resow well it-self and bloom at he end of three years.

The scolopendrium keeps an intact foliage all year long.

The laurustinus blooms non-stop from November till April, but in a spread manner, what isn't very spectacular. But in winter, it's considerable, and the foliage is beautiful and very dense.

The fruits of the ornamental apple tree 'Everest' are always loyal to one's post at this end of January.

The bloom of the fetid hellebores lasts since November. On a floral handle, flowers don't bloom all at the same time and last a very long time.

The Christmas roses begin to lose of their whiteness to adopt a sweet cameo of pink.

The blue croci appear. The yellow and the white will follow two weeks later. The spring is on the way.

The kerria of Japan look as though one is in a hurry to bloom.
